INTRODUCTIONThank you for purchasing the OMRON BP629 Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor.

The monitor is compact and easy-to-use at home, at work, and during travel. Perfect for people who frequently monitor their own blood pressure.Your new digital blood pressure monitor uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement. This means the monitor detects your blood’s movement through your brachial artery and converts the movements into a digital reading. An oscillometric monitor does not need a stethoscope so the monitor is simple to use.Clinical research has proven a direct relationship between blood pressure in the wrist and blood pressure in the arm. Changes in wrist blood pressure reflect changes in arm blood pressure because the arteries in the wrist and the arm are close to each other. Frequently measuring the blood pressure in your wrist will provide your physician with an accurate indication of changes in your blood pressure.

Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using the device. Please keep for future reference. For specific information about your own blood pressure, CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN.

Fill in for future reference.

CAUTIONRead all of the information in the instruction manual and any other literature in the box before operating the device.

CAUTIONThis device is intended for use in measuring blood pressure and pulse rate in the adult population. Do not use this device on infants or persons who cannot express their intentions.

APPLYING THE CUFF ON THE LEFT WRIST1. Roll up sleeve. Make sure your sleeve is not

rolled up too tightly on your arm. This may constrict the flow of blood in your arm.

2. Place the wrist cuff over your wrist. Your palm should face upward.

3. Position the cuff leaving a clearance of approximately 1/2 to 1 inch (1 to 2 cm) between the cuff and the bottom of your palm.

4. Wrap the wrist cuff around your wrist. Do not apply over clothing.

17

APPLYING THE WRIST CUFF

NOTES: • Wrap the wrist cuff securely around the wrist for taking accurate measurements.

• Make sure the wrist cuff does not cover the protruding part of the wrist bone on the outside of the wrist.

APPLYING THE CUFF ON THE RIGHT WRISTWhen taking a measurement using the right wrist position the cuff as shown in the illustration.

18

1. Sit comfortably on a chair with your legs uncrossed and your feet flat on the floor and place your elbow on a table in order to relax before starting blood pressure measurement.

NOTES: • The distance from the top of your seat measuring to the top of the table you are sitting at, should be 12±2 inches (30±5 cm). If the distance measured between the top of your seat and table do not fall within this parameter, please correct your seat or table height.

• The cuff must be approximately the same height as your heart. If the cuff is too high above your heart, your blood pressure will read artificially low. If the cuff is too low below your heart, your blood pressure will be artificially high.

• Relax your wrist and hand. Do not bend your wrist back, clench your fist, or bend your wrist forward.
